HomebrewedDB: RGB-D Dataset for 6D Pose Estimation of 3D Objects
share
One of the most important prerequisites for creating and evaluating 6D object pose detectors are datasets with labeled 6D poses. In the advent of deep learning methods, demand for such datasets is consinuously arising. Despite the fact that some of those exist, they are scarce and typically have restricted setups, e.g. a single object per sequence, or focus on specific object types, such as textureless industrial parts. Besides, two significant components are often ignored: training only from available 3D models instead of real data and scalability, i.e. training one method to detect all objects rather than training one detector per object. Other challenges, such as occlusions, changing light conditions and object appearance changes, as well as precisely defined benchmarks are either not present or scattered among different datasets. In this paper we present dataset for 6D pose estimation that covers the above-mentioned challenges, mainly targeting training from 3D models (both textured and textureless), scalability, occlusions, light and object appearance changes. The dataset features 33 objects (17 toy, 8 household and 8 industry-relevant objects) over 13 scenes of various difficulty. Moreover, we present a set benchmarks with the purpose of testing various desired properties of the detectors, particularly focusing on scalability with respect to the number of objects, resistance to changing light conditions, occlusions and clutter. We also set a baseline for the presented benchmarks using a publicly available state of the art detector. Considering difficulties in making such datasets, we plan to release the code allowing other researchers to extend this dataset or make their own datasets in the future.
